Feauture Suggestion/Request: Custom Tag/Tag Sequence

[diego898]

Hello! First, thank you for this great package! I'd just like to reopen a feature request/recommendation made some time ago as I think it would be an invaluable addition to plaintasks: @mbacou made this some time ago in #9 and @vovkkk said to feel free to open a new issue with a specific suggestion.

Seconding @mbacou I think it would be great to have:

• support for custom tags - allowing you to customize tag word, autocomplete, background and foreground color
• a tag sequence to cycle tags through, for example Using ctrl+d on a task would then cycle through the sequence.

{[
"task_sequence" : [ "none", "scheduled", "active", "|", "done" , "|", "cancelled"]
// or another example,
"task_sequence" : [ "none", "active", "feedback" , "|", "done", "delegated", "|", "cancelled" ]
]}

• support for the @due tag, @priority tag, etc.

autocomplete

It is customizable in purview of ST (snippets, completions). I don’t think that anything beyond that need/should be added (there are, sure, some plugins that make completions more ‘magical’, but from what I saw they all are full of bugs).

background and foreground color

This need a support for modifications in tmLanguage and tmTheme on the fly, programmatically in runtime. I don’t like this idea, mostly because it’s a tough way full of bugs. So far I know only one plugin that used to do it — Color Highlighter — recently they added some new features and it was disaster, and I just removed this plugin. Nuff said.

a tag sequence to cycle tags through

Um… okay. But what "|" means? @|?

support for the @due tag, @priority tag, etc

Funny, that is most simple suggestion and iirc there is separate issue about it, but aint nobody send pull request so far :smile: I’ll try.

Not sure what the | meant, I just copied and pasted from her suggestion.

I see what you mean about the color issue. Should be simple enough for me to just add my own by copying all locations where the @today tag is implemented.

Same goes for the @due etc.

Thanks this issue can be closed

Is this sequence already implemented?

No. I tried but code turns to be too complecated and unreliable, feel free to send pull request (of course if your implementation is reliable).
